-
inFd ins
returns the file descriptor corresponding to ins.
-
mkstemp s
like the C mkstemp function, generates and open a temporary file with prefix s.
-
mkstemps {prefix, suffix}
like mkstemp, except it has both a prefix and suffix.
-
newIn (fd, name)
creates a new instream from file descriptor fd, with name used in any Io exceptions later raised.
-
newOut (fd, name)
creates a new outstream from file descriptor fd, with name used in any Io exceptions later raised.
-
outFd out
returns the file descriptor corresponding to out.
-
tempPrefix s
adds a suitable system or user specific prefix (directory) for temp files.
